IT REMINDED ME OF SPRING

A windy, damp, and cold grey November day kept us inside, and I was able to catch up on my reading.  With temperatures above freezing, most of our snow has already melted, and with the sounds of dripping outside, it reminded me of Spring.

 WOODSY MADE 15 BUTTER TARTS AND BROUGHT THEM WITH HER YESTERDAY...THEY'RE THE BEST: AND ALREADY SHE CAN'T FIND 4 OF THEM:))

AND, SHE GOT ME THESE SOCKS TOO

GROANR'S CORNER:(( A blonde and a redhead have a ranch. They have just lost their bull. The women need to buy another, but only have $500. The redhead tells the blonde, "I will go to the market and see if I can find one for under that amount. If I can, I will send you a telegram." She goes to the market and finds one for $499. Having only one dollar left, she goes to the telegraph office and finds out that it costs one dollar per word. She is stumped on how to tell the blonde to bring the truck and trailer. Finally, she tells the telegraph operator to send the word "comfortable." Skeptical, the operator asks, "How will she know to come with the trailer from just that word?" The redhead replies, "She's a blonde so she reads slow: 'Come for ta bull.'"

Two hunters are walking through a forest looking for deer. When all of a sudden, a giant bear jumps out and scares the bejeebers out of them. They drop their guns and run.  One of the hunters stopped, opened up his backpack, and laced up a pair of tennis shoes. His buddy looked at him and said, "What are you doing? Are you crazy? You can't outrun the bear!"  To this, the hunter said, "I know, all I have to do is outrun you!"

I'LL BE HAVING TO MIND MY 'PEAS AND CUES' NOW

IN REMEMBRANCE OF NOVEMBER 11TH

It was a white world I awoke to this morning as I looked out our living room window.  Snow had come in the night and stayed.  It looks like we got 2+ inches, but inland around the London and Stratford areas, roads were closed, school buses were not operating, and there were a lot of accidents on area roads with high winds, ice and snow being the main culprit.  We here in the Bayfield area once again got off very lucky.  

 NO, NOT A UFO...IT'S OUR FRONT YARD BIRDSTATION COVERED IN SNOW THIS MORNING

 FOR A BRIEF MOMENT THIS MORNING WE HAD A PATCH OF BLUE SKY

My first order of business was to get a path shovelled out to the bird feeders.  All the little guys were so hungry that they were flying around upside down.  I decided to leave the car right where it was in the dry carport and commence with an inside house clean-up.  I even found time to transplant a Lily that has not flowered for a very long time.....And 'Yay Team', Woodsy rolled in from Stratford this afternoon.  I'll be having to mind my peas and cues now:))

 WHEN TRAVELING ON ORCHARD LINE, I ALWAYS KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THIS FELLOW

GROANER'S CORNER:(( A man was sitting in a bar and noticed a group of people using sign language. He also noticed that the bartender was using sign language to speak to them.  When the bartender returned to him, the man asked how he had learned to use sign language. The bartender explained that these were regular customers and had taught him to speak in sign. The man thought that was great.  A few minutes later, the man noticed that the people in the group were waving their hands around very wildly. The bartender looked over and signed, "Now cut that out! I warned you!" and threw the group out of the bar.  The man asked why he had done that, and the bartender said, "If I told them once I told them 100 times - NO SINGING IN THE BAR!"

I was traveling with my wife in Kanyakumari, India, one of the windiest places on Earth. Braving our way through the crosswind, we made our way to the tollbooth where I asked a bespectacled attendant, "What do you guys do in Kanyakumari when the wind quits?"
Adjusting his rims, the guy answered, "We take the rocks out of our pockets."

A woman decided to have her portrait painted. She told the artist, "Paint me with diamond rings, a diamond necklace, emerald bracelets, a ruby broach, and a gold Rolex."  "But you are not wearing any of those things," he replied.  "I know," she said. "It's in case I should die before my husband. I'm sure he will remarry right away, and I want his new wife to go crazy looking for the jewelry."
